Chapter 181 There are no gods or bodhisattvas in the world

The British "AstraZeneca" and the Swedish "Roche", as well as the American Pfizer, occupy almost 90% of the market share of targeted lung cancer drugs.

In particular, the British company "AstraZeneca" is said to be an absolute big player in the field of lung cancer.

Zhang Yang had no idea that "AstraZeneca"'s most profitable and most effective third-generation targeted drug "Osimertinib" was actually developed in cooperation with "Adelev" Biological Laboratory .

At this moment, he suddenly felt like the simulation was shining into reality...

However, after sighing for a while, he ended the search for information and began to think about whether it was necessary for Qingshan Pharmaceutical to participate in the research and development of targeted drugs for lung cancer.

Soon Zhang Yang had the answer.

Lung cancer is the undisputed number one cancer in the world. There are more than 2.5 million new cancer cases every year, accounting for 13% of all new cancers in the world.

What is the concept of more than 2.5 million cases?

The total number of uremic dialysis patients in China is just over 1 million, while the number of new lung cancer cases exceeds 2.5 million per year.

In addition, lung cancer ranks first in the mortality rate, accounting for 18.4% of the total cancer-related deaths every year.

It can be said that lung cancer is the number one killer of cancer diseases in humans.

At present, Qingshan Pharmaceutical Drug Research and Development Center has prepared multiple drug research and development project teams, with sufficient scientific research personnel and abundant financial resources. It is time to challenge cancer-related drug research and development.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Yang immediately called Wei Tian to talk about his ideas, and Wei Tian also quite agreed.

In the next few days, Zhang Yang and Wei Tian began to prepare for the establishment of a lung cancer targeted drug project team. But before Zhang Yang could finish his work, Director Dai called first.

“Mr. Zhang, didn’t you say you were interested in the incidence rate of ‘lung adenocarcinoma’ in other parts of the world?” Do you think it is convenient for you to tell me the relatively accurate incidence data of 'lung adenocarcinoma' in 2018? "

When Zhang Yang heard this, he didn't expect Director Dai to be so efficient.

He immediately put down his work and said:

"Director, it's convenient for me now. You can tell me."

"Okay!"

Director Dai stopped writing and said in a deep voice:

"I have checked a lot of relevant data. The incidence rate of 'lung adenocarcinoma' in major European regions in the past two years 43%, that is to say, ‘Lung adenocarcinoma’ accounts for 43% of all lung cancers in Europe.”

"This data was 40% in 2018, and has increased by 3% in the past few years, which is almost consistent with the Nordic data we found that day."

"And the lung glands in North America The incidence rate of cancer has been only about 42% in recent years, which is also relatively stable! ”

"In this way, my previous conjecture that the domestic incidence rate of 'lung adenocarcinoma' has increased significantly because of the 'pneumonia virus' is a bit untenable."

The voice came over the phone, and Zhang Yang thought quickly. With.

Indeed, if the incidence rate of "lung adenocarcinoma" has not increased in other parts of the world but has increased in China, it certainly cannot be caused by the "pneumonia virus".

But if it’s not the increased incidence caused by the “pneumonia virus”, what is it?

At this moment, Director Dai’s voice came on the phone again.

"However, when I was searching for information, I also found a set of data."

"I found that not only the incidence of 'lung adenocarcinoma' has suddenly increased sharply in our country in the past two years, but also in South Korea, Japan, and the entire East Asia The incidence rate of human lung adenocarcinoma has suddenly increased! ”

"South Korea has increased from 41% to 48%, and Japan has increased from 39% to 46%!"

"In general, the entire East Asia has seen a high incidence of 'lung adenocarcinoma' in the past two years. Situation!”

Zhang Yang was stunned:

"Is there something wrong with us in East Asia?!"

After saying that, he reacted and hurriedly added:

"Or, could it be that the pneumonia virus has affected East Asia? Is the issue of race more sensitive? ”

Zhang Yang’s thinking is very quick, which stems from his long-term professional sensitivity in the field of drug research and development.

In the process of drug development, a very important research is ethnic research;

Many drugs work well for Europeans, but have only average effects on Central Asians or East Asians.

On the contrary, there are also cases where it is very good for East Asians but not very effective for Europeans.

So, this is one of the reasons why when an innovative drug enters a new country or region, it needs to undergo clinical trials again, and the response of the new drug to that race needs to be tested!

Director Dai’s voice also came from the other end of the phone.

He whispered:

"Zhang Yang, I am also guessing that there is such a possibility."

"But..."

As he said that, Director Dai suddenly smiled bitterly on the phone:

"But..." I'm not an expert on viruses, I'm just a general thoracic surgeon Doctor, this is far beyond my job.”

“So, I can’t verify it. After all, if I want to study the relationship between viruses and human race, I have to do it in a professional biological laboratory. , only professional virologists can conduct the analysis.”

"It's just that now I'm afraid I can't find the specific reason for the sharp increase in 'lung adenocarcinoma'."

Zhang Yang couldn't help but chuckle.

Indeed.

If you want to study the relationship between viruses and human race, then you need a professional biological laboratory with professional biologists and virologists to conduct analysis.

Even Qingshan Pharmaceutical does not have such a professional virus analysis laboratory, and it is even very rare in China.

Oh, right.

Zhang Yang suddenly thought of another place.

In the simulation plot, the "Adelev" biological laboratory in Norway is actually a professional top-level virus analysis laboratory.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly and said:

"Well, Director Dai, not only can you not find the reason for the sharp increase in 'lung adenocarcinoma', but there is nothing I can do about it. ”

"After all, our Qingshan Pharmaceutical is only developing drugs, and the research on pneumonia viruses has not yet reached that level."

"Yes, I know."

Director Dai's tone on the phone Even more disappointed, but Zhang Yang is indeed powerless.

After hanging up the phone, the issue of why domestic “lung adenocarcinoma” has increased significantly in the past two years has come to an end for the time being;

Although the specific reason was not known, Zhang Yang did not I took it to heart and had no idea to dig deeper.

After all, Qingshan Pharmaceutical is just a pharmaceutical company, and the ones who should really do this are the scientific research institutions with annual scientific research funds.

The episode with Director Dai’s phone call quickly passed, and Zhang Yang’s focus returned to forming a lung cancer targeted drug project team.

Nowadays, Tsingshan Pharmaceutical has become the leading large-scale drug research and development enterprise in China, and even has a good reputation abroad.

Countless first-class drug developers, project leaders, and even top biologists who have long specialized in certain diseases from all over the world are beginning to be willing to join Tsingshan Pharmaceuticals. Tsingshan Pharmaceuticals attracts senior professional talents. The power is no longer the same! About half a month later, the eighth project team of Qingshan Pharmaceutical New Drug Research and Development Center - the lung cancer project team was officially established.

Zhang Yang, who had been busy for half a month, finally felt relaxed.

Just after twelve o'clock at noon, after a busy morning's work, he was about to go to the cafeteria to eat when Zhou Xiaomei suddenly walked in from the door with a few flowers.

Zhang Yang looked up and saw Zhou Xiaomei quickly inserting the delicate flowers in her hand into the vase on the conference table, and then replacing the "fresh" flowers in the vase. .

Huh?

Seeing this, he suddenly became slightly curious.

In fact, there are dedicated florist staff in the office and even in the office areas of all employees for maintenance, and someone will come and replace them every three days.

What happened to my little sister today?

Buy your own flowers to replace them?

Seeing this, he stood up and said with a smile:

"Little sister, what happened to you today? Why do you suddenly want to exchange flowers?"

"Did you buy it yourself?"

Zhou Xiaomei has had more and more contact with Zhang Yang this year. Gradually, she lost her initial inferiority complex and sensitivity, and her relationship with Zhang Yang became warmer.

However, when there are no outsiders, I still like to call Zhang Yang brother.

She said playfully:

“Brother, I don’t have money to buy it!”

"Captain Luo from the security department told me just now that the security room at the door received several bouquets of flowers, so I went down to get them and replace them with the freshest flowers for your office."

"Oh? "

Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows and said with a curious expression:

"What's wrong? Has the company received any flowers again recently? "

" Still? What could be the reason! ”

Zhou Xiaomei explained while arranging the flower branches on the table:

"Brother, you have been too busy recently. You have been busy setting up the eighth project team. You probably don't have time to surf the Internet, right? You don't have any time." How to pay attention to the topics on the Internet!”

“We are not going to remove it now! In addition to the 'nodule imaging agent' that is undergoing clinical phase II trials, is there another drug that has entered clinical phase III?"

Zhang Yang was startled, patted his head, and immediately reacted:

“I have been really busy during this period, and I almost forgot!”

"It's our 'Qiangjing Guben Oral Liquid' for treating male asthenozoospermia!"

"Yes!"

Zhou Xiaomei hummed:

"You don't know , this drug has gone through clinical phase II, and now it is undergoing clinical phase III clinical trials on hundreds of male patients. Many of the subjects are really Many of these patients have achieved natural pregnancy.”

“Many of these patients have been unable to conceive after years of trying to conceive, and some have failed to conceive after multiple in vitro fertilizations. Now they finally got pregnant. Natural pregnancy, so naturally many patients are very grateful to you and to us, Qingshan Pharmaceutical!”

"Among them are not only those who send flowers, snacks, and takeaways, but there are even those who send all kinds of weird things. In their words, they are here to fulfill their wishes."

"To fulfill your wishes?"

Zhang Yang was stunned:

"Is this too much? Are you treating us as Bodhisattvas? Are you still willing to pay back your wishes?!"

Zhou Xiaomei was immediately amused by Zhang Yang's surprised look and smiled:


"Yes, if you don't believe it, just read the reviews on the Internet!"

As she said that, she immediately took out her phone and opened the comments from netizens on Weibo.

Zhang Yang took it and after a few glances, he couldn't help but feel bitter.

What Zhou Xiaomei said is right. Many netizens’ comments on the Internet are even a little outrageous.

“@青山药业, Mr. Zhang Yang, please hurry up and put the 'Qiangjing Oral Liquid' on the market. I didn't get a clinical trial quota. If you really get me pregnant, I am willing to give it to you every year. Burn incense for you! ”

"The same goes for me upstairs. If I really get pregnant, I will set up a sign for Mr. Zhang and offer you a stick of incense every day!"

"Haha! The two brothers above, I believe Mr. Zhang No problem!”

“To be honest, I have tried folk remedies and practiced superstitions over the years. I have visited many temples, prayed to Bodhisattvas, and made many wishes. Ten, but none of them can help us conceive a child.”

“Only Qingshan Pharmaceutical’s ‘Qiangjing Guben Oral Liquid’, I only participated in the clinical trial for two months! I’m really pregnant!”

“I have to say, Qingshao Pharmaceutical is really awesome, it’s really good at it, and it’s really possible to get pregnant!”

"Haha, I laughed to death, but what I said above is indeed correct. Qingshan Pharmaceutical is indeed better than the Bodhisattva! If we in China can only have one 'Girl Giving Lady', it must be Mr. Zhang Yang of our Qingshan Pharmaceutical! ”

“I agree, now Qingshan Pharmaceutical Judging from the effects of 'Qiangjing Oral Liquid', so many people have become pregnant after taking it. I would like to call Mr. Zhang Yang the best 'child-giving lady' in China."

Zhou Xiaomei watched next to Zhang Yang! Looking at the phone screen and reading the comments one after another, I was laughing so hard.

Zhang Yang’s face was full of bitterness,

Send the child to the empress?

What is this and what?

Fortunately, among the many funny comments, there was also a favorable comment, which made him feel a lot more comfortable.

“If you ask me, there are no gods or bodhisattvas in this world. The only one who can really protect us is Qingshan Pharmaceutical. He is our living Bodhisattva!”

“Thank you Qingshan Pharmaceutical. ! ”

Looking at it, Zhang Yang felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

The thousands of likes in the comments gradually turned the bitterness on his lips into a smile.

Netizens were just teasing, but such recognition and gratitude made Zhen suddenly feel that everything he did was meaningful.

But just as Zhang Yang was sighing, Zhou Xiaomei suddenly said:

"Brother, this drug is about to end the third phase of clinical trials, and will be put on the market next."

“Have you decided on the selling price?”

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Yang was slightly surprised.

"Nothing, I just want to know how much price you, a gifting lady, would have to pay for your devout believers!"

"Little sister, come and find me!"

"Brother, no! Be gentle, it hurts!"
